Still hoarding supplies in the apocalypse? I'll just go on a killing spree and looting!

Lin You took out a small packet of fever reducer and a strip of amoxicillin from her tactical vest and placed them in Xia Lin's hand. "Give him the fever reducer first. Give him the antibiotics according to the instructions."

Charlene took the medicine, a look of joy on her face.

"Thanks."

Without waiting for Lin You's reply, she turned around to get her water glass.

An Yan also saw Lin You. She was surprised at first, then relaxed and nodded to Lin You.

Lin You stood up and left the bed that had been converted from the lab table.

After scanning around, I came to a test bench with instruments on it.

Without any hesitation, he placed his hand on a centrifuge.

A system interface pops up: "Precision experimental equipment detected. Retrieve?"

With the confirmation of the recycling of Linyou pomelos.

The entire centrifuge began to appear ethereal, with blue lines outlining the machine's internal structure.

Gray metallic specks of light emanated outwards.

They converged in the air to form a circular sphere of light that kept flashing with electric arcs.

This time, Lin You took more than three minutes to recycle.

She then walked toward the PCR instrument, electrophoresis tank, and clean workbench, preparing to collect them one by one.

The blue light stays on each device before moving on to the next.

As the blueprint was gradually being completed, Lin You finally felt hopeful.

With the blueprint in place, materials can be supplemented by recycling other mechanical products if necessary.

By recreating a small laboratory at the base, the next stage of the potion can be unlocked.

The gene serum inside might be able to save An'an, at least until a superhuman with healing abilities appears.

Seeing Lin You using the high-tech equipment to recycle these devices, Mu Xue gritted her teeth, stood up, and went to a machine.

He reached out and pressed his hand on the instrument, and it instantly disappeared from his hand.

Mu Xue swayed slightly, and her vision became blurry.

This is a consequence of exceeding the limits of one's abilities.

A hand was placed on Mu Xue's shoulder, which stabilized her swaying body slightly.

"Muxue, don't force yourself," Lin You said, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Mu Xue forced a smile. "I feel like I can still manage."

Lin You shook her head and advised, "No matter what, never let yourself fall into this state of extreme exhaustion."

Before Mu Xue could say anything more, Lin You had already forced her back into the chair.

"You need to rest now. Leave the rest to me."

Mu Xue nodded helplessly. She was still feeling dizzy and nauseous, as if all her strength had been drained from her body.

The air in front of Lin You distorted, the outline of the centrifuge flashed, and then disappeared.

Then there's the PCR instrument and the electrophoresis tank.

At the entrance of the laboratory.

Charlene turned around with her water glass in her hand and saw this scene, almost dropping the glass.

An Yan's mouth opened into a silent "O" shape.

Qin Ying pushed up her glasses with her fingers, her lips moved, and she squeezed out a few words: "Space compression?"

After Lin You finished cleaning the ultra-clean worktable, she turned to look at them.

Blood trickled from her nostrils, and she wiped it with her sleeve.

Have you seen enough?

Xia Lin was the first to react. She quickly went to Lin You and handed her the water glass.

Lin You refused outright; she wouldn't easily accept food or water from strangers outside.

This was a bloody price to pay, and even though he knew Charlene, the woman in front of him, they had only met once.

Seeing Lin You's pale face and the bloodstains on her sleeve, he didn't ask anything, but simply stuffed the remaining half packet of fever reducer into Lin You's hand.

"You should eat something too. You look even worse than Professor Shen."

Lin You looked at the medicine packet in her hand and remained silent for a moment.

This silly girl, can you just take fever reducers like that?

"This is not something that can be cured with fever reducers."

"What is that?"

"The mental exhaustion caused by using superpowers is something you just need to rest."

Mu Xue returned the medicine packet to Xia Lin, saying, "Leave it for Professor Shen."

Qin Ying frowned, her eyes full of inquiry.

Superpowers? Powers beyond those of ordinary people?

How could this possibly happen in the real world?

Lin You knew that the people in front of her were filled with curiosity and shock.

Lin You didn't intend to hide anything. Since she wanted to take them back to her base, many things couldn't be hidden, such as the system abilities she used frequently.

Of course, it's impossible to directly say that this is a system, but rather that it refers to the superpowers exhibited by a large number of superhumans who will appear in the future.

Lin You explained, "This is a superpower. Anyone can awaken a unique ability, including you."

Charlene asked blankly, "Is it possible for us to have superpowers?"

Lin You nodded and simply said, "Well, of course, it's also possible that it isn't."

Retrieving these experimental instruments required far more mental effort than Lin You had imagined. After scanning only a small portion, she felt she could no longer keep up.

Feeling drowsy, Lin You immediately stopped retrieving the equipment.

Lin You looked at Xia Lin and asked, "We'll be back here tomorrow. Are you leaving today or tomorrow?"

Charlene didn't want to stay here at all. The university town at night was extremely terrifying, a complete paradise for monsters.

That's why Charlene didn't sleep well at night, which is why she was drowsy during the day.

Charlene hesitated for a moment, then said, "But Professor Shen..."

"Is it really okay to stay here?" Lin You asked a very important question.

None of the people present had medical skills, and Professor Shen was simply enduring the pain with his own body; the longer it went on, the greater the damage would be.

It could even cost them their lives.

To truly receive treatment, it's only possible to rely on these few students and the half-baked Lin You.

It looks like they're telling Professor Shen to die.

People who can go to university are unlikely to have low IQs; they just lack experience.

He already knew the answer to what Lin You hadn't finished saying.

"We need to discuss this."

"Yes, hurry, we still need to go somewhere else."

Xia Lin hurriedly left to find her classmates and friends, leaving Lin You alone.

Lin You took out a drone from her backpack and started to fly it.

Now is not the time to conserve drone power; taking along an immobile Professor Shen will multiply the dangers involved.

First, the evacuation speed was greatly reduced, and then there were the people carrying Professor Shen.

One person carrying them isn't enough; others need to help and assist. In case of danger, one must also spare time to protect those with mobility issues.

Therefore, reconnaissance becomes extremely important.

Knowing a safe evacuation route and the basic surrounding environment is essential.

The drone took off, and the hum of its propellers gradually faded into the distance in the empty corridor.

Lin You looked down at the screen on her handheld device.

From a bird's-eye view, the ruins of the university town are laid bare.

The mutated plant vines covered most of the buildings, and several main roads were completely blocked by the mutated plants.

Lin You looked at it and had to admit that she was very lucky.

In complex environments, intuition alone can help avoid a lot of trouble.

The school gate on the east side was crushed by a fallen giant tree, and the western wall was destroyed by a strange beast, with most of it collapsing.

She swiped her finger across the screen, memorizing several possible routes around her.

The camera panned to the back of the laboratory building, where her finger stopped.

Several figures were crouching in the bushes at the edge of the back parking lot.

All four men were dressed in jungle camouflage and carried backpacks, and they had weapons in their hands.

Not just melee weapons, but also firearms.

Yes, the two rifles look like M16s?

Lin You wasn't sure, because she had never used this kind of firearm in the apocalypse, but it didn't look like a domestically produced firearm.

In addition to that, there's the equipment they're wearing.

That was real armor: bulletproof vests, tactical vests, helmets, and camouflage uniforms.

If Lin You hadn't been extremely perceptive, she would have been fooled by their disguises.

But to fool Lin You, he would at least need to learn more from those beasts that are good at disguise.

The drone quietly approached.

They crouched behind the bushes, facing the back door of the laboratory building.

They were waiting, waiting for the people inside the building to come out.

Lin You zoomed in on the image.

The leader was a woman, around thirty years old, with short hair, holding an M-series long gun in her hand.

Behind her were three men: one holding a shotgun with a scope, and two holding shotguns.

Their backpacks were bulging, suggesting they had already searched the area before even reaching the university town.

I wonder if they followed Lin You here because they saw the vehicle she was in.

Because apart from this reason, Lin You couldn't think of any other reason why they would come to the laboratory building in the university town.

Could it be that their goal is the same as ours—to get the equipment inside the laboratory building?

Lin You carefully observed the images transmitted back by the drone.

Their location was tricky; the back door was the direction from which the armored vehicles were parked, and it was also the only exit for a quick evacuation.

They were waiting for the rabbit to run into their trap.

Lin You frowned and began to retrieve the drone.

The drone circled around to the blind spot of the four people and began to climb from the other side of the experimental building.

Just as I passed a window on the third floor.

"Splash!"

The window exploded instantly, followed by a rapid flip of the screen, which moved uncontrollably toward the window.

Lin You stared intently at the constantly rotating screen.

Suddenly, I saw a strange figure.

It lay in the shadows of the room, its size roughly that of a half-grown pig.

Its skin was a mottled grayish-white, making it difficult to distinguish from the surrounding walls in the fleeting footage captured by the drone.

As Lin You looked at the last image in her hand, a name popped into her mind—the Chameleon Hunter Frog.

It is an extremely difficult predator, whose body can slowly change color to match its environment.

Lin You envisioned a specific image of the chameleon hunting frog in her mind, carefully searching for similar features in the picture.

The chameleon hunting frog has thick limbs and bony hooks at the tips of its toes, which allows it to fix itself in one position for a long time.

The head is broad and flat, and the mouth splits from behind the left ear to behind the right ear, with the edges of the lips densely covered with small, serrated scales.

Its eyes protrude and can rotate independently, allowing it to search for moving prey more quickly.

A huge air sac hangs from his throat, slowly inflating with each breath.

Lin You sighed. It seemed she had run into big trouble. The only thing she was thankful for was that she hadn't gone to the fourth floor.

Otherwise, encountering such a strange beast without any warning would be a matter of life and death.
